She is boring. Her exams aren't fair. She has made mistakes in exam keys and does not fix them. I just had an unpleasant time with her.

OH GOD... it was a horrible class. She was SO boring and made the WORST jokes (no one laughed). Her tests were tricky, and if you didn't come to class, you wouldn't pass. She graded unfairly too, especially with her papers.
She is not a difficult teacher. You must come to every class and take notes and give her the essays to review before turning them in and you can get atleast a B-. She does have corny jokes though, but other than that not a bad teacher at all.
Corny jokes aside, she was a good teacher. She gets a little animated though, so be on the lookout. Class is pretty straightforward, but you have to come to class. If you go to class and do a good job on the papers you'll have no problem. She even offers to look over the papers first, so no excuses!
She not helping you with anything in class. i hate this lady.let us pray for her she could be change one day.
She's So Nice And So Easy! She's A Great Teacher And People Are Too Hard On Her! I Loved Her Class. I Learned So Much!

Overall shes not bad at all. You must go to class and take good notes. Tests are directly from her lectures as well as online readings. If you can turn in your paper so that she can critique it before you submit it for a grade. Oh and her jokes are super cheesey
The worst professor. She does not help you with anything in class. i hate this lady.let us pray for her she could be change one day.
worst professor. Avoid her
she's a little hard, and gives a lot of notes so don't miss a class, but her exams are directly from her notes and online readings, there are no trick questions, if you study you'll well, she's not that bad.
she knows nothing about the subject but pretends toknow. She is absolutely ignorant. She is very rude and has corny jokes.
The worst professor. Avoid her. She can not help you with anything in class. i hate this lady.let us pray for her she could resign or fire one day.
She is a bore. She knows nothing.
Worst teacher. Avoid her
She is one of the most boring teachers I have ever had. All she does for 2 and a half hours is lecture from her notes. I usually ace most CJ classes, and I got a B in her class.
If you can make it through her boring two hour lectures, you can pass the class. Tests come from lecture and book, reading is not essential but I recommend it. Tests are not hard if you pay attention in class and/or read. Real snoozer though.
what a BORING professor. easy class!! just go to class to get the packet and GET OUT as soon as possible!!! tests are right out of the packet and dont bother asking for help. easy opinion paper as well!!
Utterly boring class...besides that, she talks down to her students and is rarely helpful inside or outside of class. She was even insulting on one occasion. The tests covered an incredible amount of information; if you have a bad memory (and don't like to write essays), think twice before taking this class.
She is a very boring professor that will keep you until the end of class but is easy to pass if you read the online lectures and powerpoints.
DO not take her Shes the devil
I found lectures to be boring. However, it's helpful that she provides powerpoint outlines before hand so you can take notes on them during class. Also, found exams were of medium difficulty, but just study all the names and theories on the powerpoints and read through the assigned readings.
I recommend not take this class this is a bad and boaring prof.All she teaches is from the powerpoint..i recommend to select another prof. before taking her ..she is evil and does not help at all...
OMG probably most boring CJ professor at FIU besides Michael Weissberg. 3 tests and a essay paper about a retarded subject. Lectures are verbatim from her power points and she has the worst jokes and dresses like a witch. Tests are extremely hard and you need the book to teach yourself or else the exams will be impossible to pass unless you cheat.
Yes, her lectures are a bit lengthy but informative. She is prepared for class. You have to read the textbook and on-line readings in addition to paying attention to her lectures. What a novel thought; you actually have to study! If you don't agree with your score for the written assignment ask her to review it again, she give you extra pts.
She talks a lot, "boring", and she's weird. The subject is not hard but its confusing to study all the theories and theorists'. 90% of her 3 exams are based on the power point and 10% online notes. You need to buy the book just to follow it up with the outline powerpoint, "you will waste your time if you read the whole book". Easy "A"

You need to buy the book just to follow it up with the outline powerpoint, DON'T read the whole book. 1 report, let her review it, you will get an "A".
OMG, the most boring CJ prof in the world. Shes talks and talk like to put u to sleep. If the class is two and a half hour, she uses the entire time, sometimes with no break. Avoid her, or Take lots of red bull and/ or regular coffee for her class if u take her Her exams are extremely hard. And picky on her useless term paper.
You do not need the book!! As long as you read her class lecture notes. You should be fine. I got a C because i did not study. However study her material. It's super interesting and she's a really interesting teacher. She's very "active"
WILL NEVER TAKE HER AGAIN
Literally the best professor I've ever had, bar none. It's amusing to read all the bad reviews about her, how she is so hard, and whatnot. This is college, Mommy and Daddy are not going to baby you through these classes! Extremely professional and helpful- if you go to her office hours she'll get to know you and it'll be worth it on your grades.
Nice woman, but her class is VERY BORING. 3 test, 1 paper, as stated below. Wants paper in FCAT format, for the most part. Her test are difficult, but if you read you'll be fine. She allowed online testing, but if you try open book, you'll take up time.
I haven't taken this class but when people give you a lesson about how this is college and you need to get used to it--it just seems as if it was the professor who wrote that. This site is to write your honest opinion about a professor to help people pick the best choice, nobody should be upset about that...
THIS IS THE WOREST TEACHER YOU WILL EVER HAVE AT FIU. SHE HAS SO MUCH INFORMATION ON HER TESTS ITS CRAZY. HER EXAMS COVER 6 LONG CHAPTERS. SHE MAKES YOU WRITE A PAPER AND THEN CRITICIZES EVERY SENTENCE YOU WRITE. TALKS TO MUCH IN CLASS AND IS SO BORING. SHE LOOKS EVIL AND NEEDS TO STOP TEACHING. TAKE THE CLASSES IF YOU WANA FAIL.
no, actually this is college and it wouldnt be the profess. just some of us mature faster and realize we r enterin a career. WOuld u want a open heart surgeon workin on u that doesnt kno the material. We r grown and we are suppose to learn on our own. Its suppose to be tough not easy, if you want good people taking care of u when u need it
This Professor teaches victimology like she is teaching a graduate class. Lots of reading, discussion posts, videos and articles. Her tests are not straight forward but is doable. She gives 60 mins for exams. She is better in class than online. 3 exams and discussion posts. Very time consuming. Avoid online if possible with this Professor.
bad bad and bad, do not ever take her unless you want a horrific grade. she is no good at explaining things and pretends to know what she's talking about. maybe she'd get better ratings uf she was better at grading and teaching.
Nature and Causes was really boring. Going to a 2+ hour class with no break at all really takes a toll. Not really clear in class only 1 paper and quizzes. Look elsewhere
Dr. Cohn is very nice. She is extremely knowledgeable on the topics being covered. Take notes on her lectures, read the assigned chapters, and study and you will be fine
Took this class for my minor and shocked how easy it was. I spent less than 5 hours a week on reading chapters, weekly readings, and lecture. She gives 13 quizzes, drops two, and an opinion paper. If you found this class hard, switch majors to see what a REALLY hard class is. I could not be happier with the outcome. She is always available to help.
Attendance not mandatory. There are 12 online quizzes and 3 exams. No extra credit. Extremely boring professor. Just read the textbook and you will do fine in the course.
Featured interesting and informative audio lectures. Read the material and you will pass.
Took this class online, at first I found it so difficult, but once I actually read the chapters and understood I started getting good grades on the quizzes. It isn't as bad when you get the hang of it. Just read the chapters carefully don't just skim through them. I recommend her class online.
Professor was so boring. She was not knowledgeable in her field. Always late and not prepared. I hear she reads this and puts in her own good reviews as she knows the kids hate her. She really needs to be reviewd regularly by the dean as this teacher is not a good representative for flu
I didn't listen to people and I regret it. I regret it so much. She EXPECTS you to skip other classes, work and meetings to attend random field trips she sets up -- all without giving you warning. Her papers aren't difficult, but her grading technique is impossible. You'll get an A- one week and a C+ the next, all while using the same writing style
A great professor! You will learn no matter what. I highly recommend!
Dr. Cohn is an interesting species- in a good way. She has a good sense of humor and is available all the time. She sends weekly updates reminding you to keep on pace, but her class was open format. She grades fairly. Her class consisted of weekly quizzes, biweekly discussion posts, and a paper. Pretty easy if you stay on track! Buy the textbooks!
Dr. Cohn is very nice and is ready to help in anyway possible. She's a tough grader, but very fair, and you will have to read the chapters every week to complete quizzes on them. The quizzes are easy because you can take them multiple times, and everything is done online!!!! Gives 12 weekly quizzes, 3 exams (4 chapters each), and 1 paper due.
(online) seemingly cool teacher, open concept due dates except 1 paper 3-6 page due in the middle of the semester. easy quiz, and good discussions. Just do your work and your SSSStressfree!!
Horrible. She makes it so hard to pass. The material is already hard as hell as is. Wouldn't EVER take this lady again
DONE TAKE HER! I HAVE A 3.94 GPA! That should tell you.
She drags her lessons way too long! She'll explain the same thing over and over again, for absolutely no reason. No one shows up to her classroom unless its test day because no matter what comes out of her mouth it won't be on the test. I wonder what this woman is thinking when she creates these tests.
Worse professor FIU has! She should not be a teacher, she comes up with material in the test that she never discussed.
Professor Cohn is such a great knowgledable proffessor belongs at a higher prestige school. Shes tough for those that dont keep up and dont review . Easy course devided up into 3 quarters. Each quarter 4 chapters then a summary exam 50?// PP & class discussions are super helpfull // get the book if you want an A // Super nice lady.
This is my second course with her. DO NOT DARE TAKE AN IN PERSON COURSE WITH HER. I took Crim Theory and the tests were impossible as if the material wasn't boring enough. For online Victimology the class is self paced, I did it all in the last week and got an A. Dont expect good grades on papers, shes very critical.
This was my first class with her. The class was pretty easy. She gives you until the end of the semester to turn all assignments. Weekly quizzes and a writing assignment. If you don't pass you're lazy and didn't do the work. I got a B+ and it was easy. No tricks or confusion. Just read your weekly chapter and quiz! Take her!
I failed her class. I apparently couldn't get anything right. I got a B on my paper but it didn't outweigh how bad I had done on the tests. Deff never taking her again. She's all over the place with lectures.
I took this class online and it requires A LOT of homework. You have to do a quiz for every chapter. If you take the practice quiz and read the most important topics of the chapter, you should be fine. There are 15 quizzes and 6 modules. Work hard on your modules to get a good grade. Extra credit available too!
By far the easiest course i've taken at FIU. Very simple laid out course. As long as you do the study mate for each quiz you will pass all of them. She doesn't require lock down browser for her quizzes however very little to none of her questions are online. Want an easy A/B take this course.
I took this professor online. I know that online courses, you tend to read and do more work because you are not attending a class lecture. However, I have never read so much for a class. The book has 14 chapters all of which i've read. After every chapter, there is a test after that, there is a module reflection you must complete. So much work!!!
This was my prof for an online course on Intercult. Communication with UMUC. Prof did not stimulate student-faculty interaction. Prof failed to comment on discussion entries and did not create opportunities for further exchanges. She admitted being busy grading other courses and did not provide clear and thorough instructions on essays.
Very strange professor. Can not teach.
Victimology online is an easy A. DO NOT BUY THE BOOK. There is a quiz for every single section, studymate is provided & has all the questions and answers to study from, do them all and you will pass. Module reflection for each chapter, follow the guidelines and you will get an easy A. Hard to fail this class with all the answers given to you.
15 quizzes and 6 module reflections is what your grade mainly consist of. The class is self paced so you can complete it at your convenience. Super duper easy class and finished 5 weeks before the end of the semester so it's given me ample time to focus on my other courses. Just keep up with your work and I promise you will get an A.
The class test are NOT easy. answers cannot be found online. They are in the reading, her own book that has to be purchased which is expensive, and the online reading material. Great thing is the quizzes can be taken twice, and there is extra credit. The class is divided into two modules that has to be submitted the middle of the semester and end
Tbh its a good class. Open format. Half due at a certain time half due at the end. Use the studymates. And buy the cheaper book. 6 500+ word essays. Easy class overall. Took me probably 3 weeks total to finish all the material and quizzes. Got an A+
Very interesting course. Weekly discussions and quizzes are one for a very long time (like 2 weeks). They are pretty tough so you MUST read the book and her online material.
This was an okay elective. Be prepared to work and read. If you're not a CJ major the work in the class in not worth it.
Easy class for the most part. A quiz after every chapter, get 2 chances on all quizzes, 3 papers and 3 extra credit quizzes which you don't get 2 chances for. She answers to emails in a timely manner and is always in contact with the class through Remind. Gives about a month to complete each section.
I am taking this class remotely due to the pandemic. Every week you have a new reading, pre-class quiz (you get unlimited tries which is amazing) and a Packback assignment(a bit tedious at first but you get used to it). 3 exams and an extra credit quiz at the end of the semester. She is very sweet & helpful. Definitely recommend! Easy A/B!
Lots of reading, tough quizzes, no exams, but she will help you pass if you do your part and go to class
Consist of 3 major due dates where you submit 5 quizzes, a 500 word module reflection and an extra credit quiz. Theres no other assignment which lowers the chances to balance out your grade. Fully based on the quizzes and the answers are not found online or in the book. You actually have to read and learn the material, 2 attempts per quiz.
Dr. Cohn and TA Sosa were very responsive. I liked that she used Remind to send reminders about deadlines. The quizzes are pretty hard, but I like that she gave 2 attempts on each one. The reflections are definitely doable. It was nice to have flexible due dates for assignments in case we had busy weeks, but its important to not procrastinate.
Is not clear on what to study for the quiz and instruction are not specific when giving out study materials. When giving test does not match the material that she covers during class. When covering material jump around between chapters in the book so you are not clear on what to study for on the quizzes.
This professor was super picky with her work I would never get a perfect score on my discussions which I worked hard on and she was never specific on what to study specifically for the quizzes. Also she had 5 quizzes due in one day at 6pm instead of 11:59 and a reflection. I dont recommend.
took it online, no live lectures. so much reading it's crazy. two times to take the quizzes which are needed because these are hard. don't think u can just cheat cuz it's not possible, u gotta read. so this class is hard but I learned so much. had zero interaction with the professor. Readings are long but interesting.
Professor Cohn was great! Her lectures were very easy to understand. There is quite a lot of reading, you read the book and she sometimes posted videos or articles to read as well. Her exams are kind of difficult, but her weekly knowledge checks are fairly simple. Gives extra credit for attendance and answers via remind very quickly.
Professor Cohn was a great teacher and she was very sweet. She provides pre-recorded video lectures and PowerPoints for every chapter. She does not give much homework, there is one writing assignment, and 3 exams, and there is no way not to pass the class as long as you turn stuff in and pay attention.
Prof Cohn is nice and funny and her lectures aren't boring. there are knowledge checks every week, 3 exams, and one writing assignment. Being so honest, I didn't open the book or listen to the recorded lectures once and I passed with an A. Attendance is also extra credit and she is happy to answer any and all questions.
Dr Cohn is one of the nicest professors I've ever had. Her class is pretty easy too! There's a 10-question quiz due every week, three 50-question online (non-proctored) exams, and one essay assignment that is honestly very easy. Attendance and exam 4 are extra credit. Highly recommend Dr. Cohn as a professor!
Be careful! she is a vintage professor, unbearable, obsessive sending reminders, disrespectful feedbacks, bad grades, not time to write 2 assays (Midterm) and 2 papers (Final exam) in 3 days. No refund, for withdrawn. She treats adults like elementary school students. Not recommend her!
Took in the summer, honestly she was great. One discussion post, term split in 3 parts, about 6 quizzes each part you do at your own pace, you have 2 chances per quiz plus 3 extra credit quizzes. She sent constant reminders through Remind because her quizzes were due at 6pm not 11:59pm. Easy grader, interesting topics, super sweet, take her!
Really caring professor that wanted her students to learn from her. There are quizzes every week on that weeks chapter and three exams, nothing is lockdown browser. There is an essay but I wrote it 3 days before it was due and got an A. Class is not mandatory but attendance is extra credit. Overall great class
